Preventing Dental Caries With Common Sense

Tooth decay is a common dental problem many people face. It is also known as dental caries or cavities. It occurs when foods containing sugar and starch are taken in large quantities and are left for quite a while in the mouth. Bacteria in the mouth convert these sugars and starch into corrosive acid. The acid attacks the teeth. With repetitive cycles, the enamel, which is the outer layer of the teeth, will then be destroyed. This can lead to the formation of a large cavity in the tooth. The good news is that dental problems can be avoided. This article describes how to prevent cavities / tooth cavity. 


Wise, Tested Ways To Prevent Tooth Decay 

Brushing your teeth twice a day is a good practice of oral hygiene. It is advisable to brush your teeth after every meal. This has a significant impact in the fight against tooth decay. Check to see that you use a toothpaste that contains the right amount of fluoride because fluoride helps keep teeth strong. Many mouthwashes are available in the market these days. These mouthwashes are clinically tested to reduce plaque. Using mouthwash after eating rinses your mouth, thus helping to prevent dental cavity formation. Usually cavities show no signs in the early stages and cannot be identified by dentists early on. Visit every six months plus a dental cleaning will do just the trick. The dentist plays an important role in the prevention of dental caries and generalized tooth decay. 

Opt for the application of protective dental sealants. It is the application of a protective layer on the surface of the teeth. These sealants help to protect teeth from further decay. Sealants are often used in children as they grow permanent teeth. Sealers are beneficial for adults as well, especially those who already have caries.

Diet Modifications 

Avoid frequent snacking. Eating or drinking frequently and drink plenty of water to feed the bacteria in the mouth channels to create the acid. Water helps to flush away any food particles that may be left in the mouth or between your teeth, but try to limit your beverage to water and less sugary or fizzy ones such as sodas and packed juices. If you love munchies so much that you can’t help but snack on something every thirty minutes or so, try celery and peanut butter, carrot sticks on humus, or other healthier alternatives. 


Cut down your intake of sugar and starch in your diet. Try fixing your cravings for the good yet bad stuff by having a little bit of everything instead of gobbling a whole candy bar or a pound of potato chips in one sitting. In fact, the bacteria in the mouth react with these foods and convert sugar and starch to acid. This acid attacks the tooth and can break its surface, which can progress to serious complications like nerve damage and even septicemia. 


Finally, to help prevent tooth decay, it is important to avoid eating foods that contain high amounts of carbohydrates before bed. This is important because there is no production of saliva when you sleep, which gives you a mouth that’s as dry as cotton in the morning. Dry mouth makes teeth more susceptible to decay, so better be safe than sorry.
